The Mother Road 2013
We are off and exploring Route 66 in Missouri. About 30 miles west of St Louis we visited Route 66 State Park. It has an excellent small museum which prepared us well for the trip.
Sixteen miles further we came to Shaw Nature Reserve, a 2500 acre oasis. The wild flowers are in bloom, the turtles are sunning themselves on the logs, the sun is shining. God has a beautiful world.
We expected ghost towns; we found thriving small towns with very friendly people. It is nice to travel off the interstate.
Tomorrow we will visit Fort Leonard Wood, where Hank's Dad was based during the Korean War. Hank lived near here for 6 months. It will be a journey back in time for him.
Love and peace to all.
Hank and Marilyn
